New Doctor Who Season 3, Episode 10, “Blink” 姓名____________學號 ____________ The Doctor's Message from 1965 They're coming. They're coming for you, but listen, your life could depend on this. Don't blink. Don't even blink. Blink and you're dead. They are fast, faster than you can believe. Don't turn your back, don't look away, and don't blink. Good luck. The letter from Kathy to Sally, 1920 My dearest Sally Sparrow. If my grandson has done as he promises he will, then as you read these words it has been merely minutes since we last spoke for you. For me, it has been over sixty years. The third of the photographs is of my children. The youngest is Sally. I named her after you, of course. I suppose, unless I live to a really exceptional old age, I will be long gone as you read this. Don't feel sorry for me. I have led a good and full life. I've loved a good man and been well loved in return. You would have liked Ben. He was the very first person I met in 1920. The Doctor talks about the weeping angels, 1965 DOCTOR: What matters is, we can communicate. We have got big problems now. They have taken the blue box, haven't they? The angels have the phone box. LARRY: The angels have the phone box. That's my favorite, I've got it on a T-shirt. SALLY: What do you mean, angels? You mean those statue things? DOCTOR: Creatures from another world. SALLY: But they're just statues. DOCTOR: Only when you see them. SALLY: What does that mean? DOCTOR: The lonely assassins, they used to be called. No one quite knows where they came from, but they're as old as the universe, or very nearly, and they have survived this long because they have the most perfect defense system ever evolved. They are quantum-locked. They don't exist when they're being observed. The moment they are seen by any other living creature, they freeze into rock. No choice. It's a fact of their biology. In the sight of any living thing, they literally turn to stone. And you can't kill a stone. Of course, a stone can't kill you either. But then you turn your head away, then you blink, and oh yes it can (kill you). SALLY: Don't take your eyes off that. DOCTOR: That's why they cover their eyes. They're not weeping. They can't risk looking at each other. Their greatest asset is their greatest curse. They can never be seen. The loneliest creatures in the universe. And I'm sorry. I am very, very sorry. It's up to you now. SALLY: What am I supposed to do? DOCTOR: The blue box, it's my time machine. There is a world of time energy in there they could feast on forever, but the damage they could do could switch off the sun. You have got to send it back to me. .
